Question

Define formalism what is it not influenced byexplain the difference between iconography and iconology ​

Answer 1

The difference between iconography and iconology is that iconography is the meaning of symbols and images in a piece of work. However, iconology is the study of the meaning contained within a piece of art in a broader cultural or artistic context. While symbolic meaning is present in iconology, it is the focus of iconography. For example, while the symbolic meaning of a piece could be a figure of religion, the broader context could be a rise in a certain religion of the environment around the artist.

To your second question :)

Answer 2

Formalism describes the critical position that the most important aspect of a work of art is its form – the way it is made and its purely visual aspects – rather than its narrative content or its relationship to the visible world.

Iconography refers to meaning of the symbols and images in art. Iconology is the study of imagery in terms of broader cultural and artistic content in art.
